Transcatheter Arterial Embolization in the Management of Postpartum Hemorrhage due to Genital Tract Injury after Vaginal Delivery.

Purpose: To evaluate efficacy and safety of transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) in managing postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) due to genital tract injury after vaginal delivery and to investigate factors associated with outcome of TAE.

Materials And Methods: A retrospective review of 43 women (mean age, 32.6 years) who underwent TAE to manage PPH secondary to genital tract injury after vaginal delivery was performed at a single institution between January 2007 and December 2018.

Transabdominal selective feticide in dichorionic twins: Ten years' experience at a single center.

Aim: The present study investigates the procedure-related fetal loss rate and obstetrical outcomes of selective feticide in dichorionic twins.

Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the data of 44 cases of dichorionic twins. Two different indications for selective feticide were set: (i) the presence of genetic or congenital anomaly; and (ii) an obstetrical indication specified as a past maternal history of preterm delivery that caused fetal death or cerebral palsy of the child.
